Feel free to ignore as it's my opinion.
I'm sorry, but I just had to address this. I myself am an advocate of CloudxAerith, however, that does not mean that I am like the Aerith fangirls (/boys if there are any) that will be all like, "Aerith! Aerith, Aerith, Aerith! I love Aerith! What?! You can revive her?! How?! Tell me! I'll try every rumor I here!! I love Aerith! I LOVE Aerith!!!!!" Those kinds of people need help.Quote:

If Aerith hadn't died, the team's personal conviction for their vendetta against Sephiroth would not have been nearly as strong. All of them had lost something along the way. Some more than others, but all of them had lost a good friend to the hand of Sephiroth. Bringing Aerith back would have ruined that. Plus the 15 minutes of real plot advancement that I was talking about in AC would have been gone too.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, the plot advancement of AC was not about Sephiroth. He was just there so that they could have a 90 minute film. The real storyline of AC was Cloud getting over his guilt about Aerith's and Zach's deaths. That could have been told in 15 minutes. The rest was just eye candy for the FFVII fanboy. So, reviving Aerith would actually make the small amount of plot that AC contains moot. That is why they should not revive Aerith if they make a remake.
Now, back on subject, to me it seems as though a remake is on the horizon. I mean, Square is putting out all of this new FFVII stuff on new systems so that they can recreate the environments. Come on, in DoC they revamped (SPOILER)Shinra Mansion, Kalm, a few parts of Midgar, all of the characters. To me it just seems like a way to start remaking old environments without letting on that they're doing a remake. So I do believe that a remake will be seen within the next few years.
hes an idea y dont they make areis, zack, and others unlocables or something like that
Yea those ppl mourn over a videogame character (that will be missed) than their own dead parents.:(Quote:

they will remake it theirs no doubt they will make so much money from it why wouldnt they remake it?
I think a remake would suck. I like all the little lego man graphics. It's what makes it FF7. That is how I identify it as FF7. Well that and the fact that the most annoying game character IMO died in it.
Allow me to demostrate why that arguement is flawed.Quote:

I think a remake wouldn't be too good, cause ff7 was great as it is. Its a classic that is to be remmebered, for what it was. Making a remake would be cool but square should devote its work into future ff games and make them better.
To whit: SMEG NO!Quote:

AC gives us the answer. AC was needed to finish the game.Quote:

And instead of adding the ending into the game, which would have been about 15 minutes of game play without a dramatic ending (which no one wants), they made it into a movie. Great. Now they have to come up with a plot for the movie! So, I think they did a good job of turning 15 minutes of game play (probably not even that; it would most likely have been a cut secne.) into a 90 minute movie. It turned out quite well.
Why would they do that when all their other newer games completley suck? FF7 has a great storyline. If people like it, then don't let it die. I know that many have never played FF7, but have played other FF games. My friend wasn't enchanted by the game she got for her B-day. At all. By remaking FF7, and thus getting back out on the market, would restore many gamers faith in the FF series and would get square some more respect.Quote:

And remember, it's not a matter of if it will come out. It's a matter of when.
P.S. And if anyone brings up reviving Aeris again, I will sick my flying monkeys on you. Fear the monkeys.
I think a remake would be great, other FF's (pre-7 mostly) could def. use it.
A remake of VI would be hilarious because its disciples would realize that the graphics aren't the only aspect that's outdated.
And a revival of Aeris would be the worst thing to happen to games.
I beg to differ, good sir. The ending to VII was perfectly fine the way it was. It was purposely ambiguous so that it could be discussed. This game never was supposed to give you all of the answers, and leaving the ending open like that was just another question.Quote:

It was just a look at what happened in Cloud's life after Meteorfall. Then it grew from there and became AC. So no, AC is not needed to complete the story, but it was nice to actually know what happened.
Though some fans would beg to differ and tell you that the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII was the worst thing to happen to the entire FF franchise.
Maybe. But I don't like stories to have such open endings; especially ones I worked my as* off for to complete and finally reach the endings. I believe that many share my opinion, thus AC was neccessary. That and threads going on about 'what do you think happened?' or 'did they get together?' or 'Do you think there should be a sequal?' and such that finally prompted them to make AC. Besides, there are enough things left unanswerd in AC that people are discussing. (like dilly-dally shilly-shally. That one won't ever die, unfortunately.)Quote:

Of course it was. FF7 was Cloud's story. One that never had a real definitive end. So, AC was needed to finish the story properly.Quote:
